Sorry, trying to think it out and keep it clean, Thanks DaddyDoug for the catch
They have had a good history through the years with great games. Looking forward to it as well. Thanks for the history link.
I am hoping neither team has injuries on Friday with a good clean hard-fought game for all teams.
Me to TD we get bashed for easy scheduling but in reality we looking for tough oppent
During the next realignment some of those county rivalries will probably become conf games and they will look elsewhere for good games. Until then they won't drop them for the reason you quoted. Mainly gates.
Those 4A schools are not playing Mt. Airy. Too much to lose and nothing to gain.
To a good 4a program a 1a is a cupcake
Ok Rex really you might misunderstood my comment when I said we are looking for a tougher opponent I meant fans like me we are tired seeing 50 to 0 beat down every week and this is starting to put us on road in ranking system deep in the playoffs if we make it I know it is all going to fall back on gate thing but just saying
I may have misunderstood what you said in that case. This I do agree with. If those out of conference games with local teams cost a home game in the 5th round, they probably lose out on more gate money than those bring, especially the Ashe game.
Alcoa is only 59 miles away Robbinsville. I’m surprised that Robbinsville doesn’t try scheduling schools from the Knoxville area being so close.
Whoa. I lived in Robbinsville. That is the worst 59 miles I have ever been on. Takes about an hour and a half if you're lucky, but a very curvy tense drive. US 129 is a very famous road, and that section is the most famous. of all with a lot of switchbacks. I had rather drive to Asheville, Hendersonville, or even Spruce Pine. I moved away from Robbinsville in 1987 perhaps things have changed.
I know about the road. If you want tense go out West and drive on some of their roads. Went to Yellowstone and drove to Cody,WY one day on the trip. You would starve before you hit the bottom

Reading on the ole inter web. It’s says nothing over 30ft is allowed on 129. My father in law gets car sick easy. Need to take him on a scenic ride one day soon.
Great post TD thank you for posting this!
Not the Beartooth but that’s a bucket list. It was a different road that went to Cody from Yellowstone. Have you ever watched the YouTube videos of the snow removal from the Beartooth.
